Chapter 466: Night Walking

The two of them did not deliberately avoid everyone when they spoke, and they were not interested in topics that were not related to Gutong County, so they were just busy making sugar pills in their hands.

This sentence "someone is coming" startled the family who was originally making sugar pills, and was about to say something, but the girl who was sleeping with her fingers sucking suddenly opened her eyes at this time.

"Three people." The girl frowned and sat up, her little face full of displeasure, and she looked angry and dissatisfied after being disturbed.

A few people were stunned, and the old and young of the family were the first to react, and were about to pull the youngest child to stuff behind the wood where he had been hiding before, but when he saw the greedy girl throw a piece of halva in her mouth, she stood up, and then strode out the door.

Originally, it was a full of momentum, but I don't know if it's because of her young age, and it looks a little funny when she walks up with short legs. She was not the only one who walked out, and when she was about to reach the door, the adult surnamed Zhang suddenly moved and walked out.

The behavior of the two of them leaving together made people panic, and the man instinctively stood up and was about to follow, but it was the Lord Qiao who stopped them.

"You stay here with me." She said as she stood by the window and looked out the window, "What to do, don't care." ”

The figure in the snow became clear as it got closer.

The robes on the two bodies next to her were so familiar that she recognized them at a glance.

It's a handyman in the post house.

The one in the middle has a medicine box on his back, and he looks like a doctor.

In this way, they were quite fast, and they invited the doctor so quickly, Qiao Ran looked at the approaching group and did not speak. The three people on the left and right didn't come up to them so easily.

Two people suddenly appeared in the snow. The three people who had been hurrying with their heads down also looked up at this time.

The difference between the two figures is somewhat large, an adult man and a child. They were looking at these two people, and these two people were looking at them.

The man's eyes were calm, but the child was looking at them with some obvious anger.

The two servants glanced at the doctor, and no one in the snow spoke, but approached them step by step, and then passed by...... But the moment they passed by, the three people suddenly changed their expressions and raised their hands.

With a "boom", the crossbow arrow passed by and fell into the snow not far away.

One blow missed, the other party was not easy to provoke, and the two miscellaneous servants who had looked ordinary before changed their expressions at the same time as the doctor, and the person jumped up and pounced on the ...... The kid next to the man.

This scene was watched by the man standing at the window in an instant, and he was dumbfounded.

"They ......"

"Good skills!" Qiao Ran looked at the swaying figures in the snow and narrowed her eyes slightly, "I walked with crossbow arrows on my sleeves, I didn't know about ordinary miscellaneous servants, and a doctor would even tie crossbow arrows to his arms." ”

"My wounds were also wounded by their crossbow arrows." The girl who performed the assassination also walked behind them and looked out the window, "I haven't even approached Wang Chunlin's body." ”

"You should probably be glad you didn't get close to him." Qiao Ran looked at the figure that was unrecognizable for a while, and said, "He was stabbed many times unharmed, if I didn't guess wrong, he himself would definitely be more dangerous." ”

The girl opened her mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment. I heard the girl next to me suddenly "huh".

Instinctively, she asked, "My lord, is there something wrong?" ”

Qiao Ran shook her head and just continued to look out the window.

"Don't worry." The girl thought for a while, afraid that she would worry about the two people outside, so she couldn't help but say, "Although I can't compare to them, I can also see that the skills of those two people are far above the three people outside." ”

It was probably from the woman's intuition, she felt that the relationship between this Lord Qiao and the adult surnamed Zhang was not as simple as cooperation. Something...... It's not clear, no matter how normal it is, if there is love between the two, it can also make people see the difference.

Thinking about this, she couldn't help but feel a little depressed: I think that once upon a time, she and Brother Tong were the same, but now her Brother Tong is dead. died at the hands of Wang Chunlin, how could this revenge not be avenged? Thinking about it made my eyes redder.

"I know." Qiao Ran's gaze did not take her eyes away, she looked at the staggered figures outside and said, "If these little minions can't be cleaned up, how can they go to Wang Chunlin?" ”

As he spoke, Pei Qingqing had already grabbed the hand of the handyman who was the first to carry the crossbow arrow. The miscellaneous servant's eyes flashed with anger, and he raised his hand slightly, saying that it was too late and that was fast, only to hear a "click", and the cuffs that were aimed at Pei Qingqing fell off at a very fast speed.

A crossbow bolt is right in the heart of the handyman.

In the blink of an eye, one was already dead.

The handyman fell down in disbelief, Pei Qingqing stuck out his tongue and said, "I didn't mean to." ”

This can't help but be intentional or not, and the other party has no intention of negotiating conditions with them at all. So, there was no suspense in the outcome.

In fact, all this happened between lightning and flint, and in the blink of an eye, there were three people lying on the ground.

Qiao Ran walked out, and the eyes of the red blood and the white thorns of the snow ached.

"People are dead." Pei Qingqing squatted aside and watched Zhang Xie untie the crossbow arrows on the arms of the handyman and the doctor.

Qiao Ran took the crossbow arrow he handed over, took it in his hand, and said, "It's very fine, you have to get a lot of money!" ”

Withdraw money again! Pei Qingqing snorted twice, grabbed two crossbow arrows and tied them to his arms in a similar manner, and said, "This thing is very useful, just use it." ”

Qiao Ran smiled when she saw this, and then tied it to her arm, then looked at the sign that Zhang Xie turned over, and said with a sigh: "Is this the hand card of the county government?" It seems that this handyman is bigger than the cards of those postmen! ”

Zhang Xie chuckled lightly, and from the moment the miscellaneous servant and the doctor suddenly made a move and took out a crossbow arrow that should not have appeared, some things had been confirmed.

After collecting their cards, he immediately opened the doctor's medical box, which attracted their attention with its rows of jars of medicine, except for some ordinary things.

"Take it back and see." Qiao Ran said and looked at the corpse on the ground, "Find a way to inform General Bai and let them deal with it." ”

It's not a matter of putting the corpse in the snow like this, but it is not safe to report this kind of thing, and they went in person, seeing the old and young of the family who limped away, Pei Qingqing snorted, pinching the sugar pills in the oiled paper bag, some of which were not a taste.

"Just these few sugar pills are asking me to wait to do such a dangerous thing, looking honest and honest, it's actually too bad."

Qiao Ran grabbed the pill on the top of her head and said with a smile: "Let's go, go to Gutong County." ”

"Go now?" This sentence startled Pei Qingqing, looking at the heavy snow and the dark sky, and said, "Don't you wait until the snow stops or dawn before leaving?" ”

"We don't have much to delay." Qiao Ran said and walked forward, "I don't know if there are any of them at the post station, if these three people don't go back until dawn, they will definitely be found out that something has happened, so if you want to do it, you have to be fast." ”

Pei Qingqing sighed, took her hand, walked aside, just took two steps, and suddenly said "Huh", feeling wrong: "Then what do you ask them to report?" The left and right people will find out if they are buried until dawn. ”

Qiao Ran snorted lightly: "It's better for them to go to Bai Zhijun than to stay in this broken temple and be discovered." ”

Thinking of the other party's clumsy disguise when they entered the temple before, Pei Qingqing couldn't help frowning: This family is really simple, Miss Qiao didn't remind them, maybe they were ready to go back and throw themselves into the net.

After a pause, Qiao Ran said again: "Also, we must inform Bai Zhijun of our whereabouts, so that he can pick us up." ”

Although the road in the snow is not easy to walk, she is already familiar with the map of Gutong County, and she is sure enough to arrive in Gutong County before dawn.

……

On snowy nights, few people walked outside, except for the soldiers patrolling the army.

This is a habit maintained in the army all year round, and the enemy attack is always sudden, and sometimes in the middle of the night, the enemy takes the opportunity to sneak into the rear, intending to take advantage of the good sleep of everyone to wipe them out.

They are soldiers, but they are not ordinary people, and sometimes they are greedy for a warm quilt, which is very likely to cause tens of thousands of soldiers to die.

Therefore, patrols in the military are indispensable at all times.

Soldiers on patrol change shifts every hour.

They don't make a sound, they don't even make a sound when they change shifts, and they cooperate all year round, and with just one look, the soldiers will understand each other.

"What time is it?" The sudden sound in the main general's camp startled the two patrol soldiers who were on shift, and they hurriedly looked back at Bai Zhijun who came out of the camp, saluted in unison, and shouted "General".

General Bai's robe was draped over his body so casually, obviously he got up suddenly.

Bai Zhijun only nodded at the soldier's salute, then looked at the shadow on the ground, and said, "It's time?" ”

The two patrolling soldiers were stunned and said yes.

At this moment, an elite general guarding the front camp came over: "General, a few people are out asking to see you, saying that they came at the request of Lord Qiao. ”

When he said this, the general also seemed a little puzzled, Lord Qiao, weren't they in the post station on the side? Need to send someone to find the general?

Could it be that he is lazy? Of course, this is just a muttering in his own heart, what the general is going to do, it is not his turn to dictate.

Bai Zhijun only hummed when he heard this, and then said lightly: "Let them come in!" ”

It's almost time, it should be almost over.

……

Memorize the map, rush to Gutong County, even if it takes a few hours to walk, otherwise, the afternoon departure, plus the arrangement of doctors or something, back and forth, how could those handyman doctors appear in the broken temple before the end of the day?

"Originally, it was not easy to walk on this mountain road." The vast heavy snow did not make her lose her way, looking at the low city not far away, Qiao Ran sighed lightly, "But this Lord Wang has been so successful in 'suppressing bandits', and for convenience, he specially built a road to connect the post station, which really helped us a lot." ”

Pei Qingqing hummed twice, but her focus was different from hers: "It's so close, you really don't need to ride a horse." She looked at the city and asked Qiao Ran, "Then when are we going to enter the city?" ”

"Now." Qiao Ran said and looked at Zhang Xie on the side, "Before dawn, a surprise attack will capture Wang Chunlin." ”

Is this the time? Pei Qingqing was surprised, looking at the bleak sky, it was naturally not difficult for them to turn over such a low city.

"But that's too fast......" she muttered. She didn't even know it, so she stupidly followed them, and if she knew in the morning, they were ready to do it tonight, then she would ...... Forget it, she's still coming. Pei Qingqing pursed her lips and said in her heart, even her own people were a little caught off guard by their actions.

"We just want to be fast, we don't have much time." Qiao Ran said and walked forward, "If such a good opportunity can't be won in one hit, once they react on someone else's territory, it will not be easy to seize this Wang Chunlin." ”

……

"The art of war has clouds, and its speed is like the wind, so it is natural to be a soldier and fast!" Looking at the stunned and frightened family, Bai Zhijun asked them to take them down, turned to the elite general, and said, "Leave two hundred people to surround the post station, I can't fly out even a carrier pigeon that transmits news." ”

"The remaining soldiers are divided into two routes, you and I will each lead a team, set off in two ways, enter from the east and west gates of Gutong County, and control the entire Gutong County." Bai Zhijun said.

The main general gave an order, naturally he didn't dare to disobey, and the elite general went away, but he only took two steps, but he still stopped, and then couldn't help but turn back to Bai Zhijun and said, "General, the snow night is really not suitable for marching." Of course he knows the art of war, Bai Zhijun must know more than him, so he doesn't need to give advice, but under such a sudden order, it really makes him a little confused.

"I know it's too fast, but the time and place are favorable, and the location is favorable, and the person is prepared by Master Qiao and Master Zhang Tianshi, but the time of day is ......" Bai Zhijun paused, looked at the fluttering snow flakes and said, "This snow will stop at dawn, and I can't wait." ”

……

Turning over the low city, Gutong County is not the city that never sleeps like Chang'an City, and there is no one on the silent street.

A circular altar can be seen on every street. Of course, on such a snowy night, no matter which master will not be able to come out.

A heavy snowfall seemed to put on a robe of shame for the entire Gutong County, making the Gutong County look no different from the county she had seen before.

Not far in front of him was the Gutong County Ya, Qiao Ran stopped and looked at Zhang Xie and Pei Qingqing: "How is it?" She asked again, "Can it be done?" ”

Zhang Xie snorted, pulled Pei Qingqing to his side, and said, "You want to stay in the city?" ”

Qiao Ran nodded: "Once something happens to Wang Chunlin and his party, then the master and the Taoist master will definitely open their mouths to let the people block the way, so we must stop this kind of thing from happening." ”

It's not just Wang Chunlin who is in trouble, but also those who are in cahoots with him. Therefore, someone in the city must answer it, otherwise even if Wang Chunlin is captured, he will not be able to take people away easily. And the more chaotic it is, the more unexpected things are likely to happen, and she wants to put an end to this possibility.

He thought about it, pushed Pei Qingqing to her side, and said, "Let her go with you." "It's not safe to do this in the city.

"Not necessarily." The girl shook her head and refused to Zhang Jie, "You are in danger there, as long as there is one me in the city." ”

"But ......" Zhang Xie hesitated, it was not surprising that the deceived people would do anything. She was left alone in the city, how could he rest assured?

"I'm sorry for my life, don't worry." The girl took a step back as she spoke, her face was solemn as she had never been: "On the contrary, it is best for you to capture Wang Chunlin alive, and once you perceive the danger, you will kill him immediately!" ”
